Book Description
Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk- In a Narrative of her sufferings, during a residence of five years as a novice, and two years as a black nun, in the Hotel Dieu Nunnery at Montreal. Includes additional infomation and confirmation.. To which is added, the Nun or six months' residence in a convent- by Rebecca Theresa Reed. PREFACE. It is hoped that the reader of the ensuing narrative will not suppose that it is a fiction, or that the scenes and persons that I have delineated, had not a real existence. It is also desired, that the author of this volume may be regarded not as a voluntary participator in the very guilty transactions which are described but receive sympathy for the trials which she has endured, and the peculiar situation in which her past experience, and escape from the power of the Superior of the Hotel Dieu Nunnery, at Montreal, and the snares of ,the Roman Priests in Canada, have left her. My feelings are frequently distressed and agitated by the recollection of what I have passed through, and by night and day I have little peace of mind, and few periods of calm and pleasing rccollection. Futurity also appears uncertain. I know not what reception this little work may meet with, and what will be the effect of its publication here or in Canada, among strangers, friends, or enemies. I have given the world the truth, so far as I have gone, on subjects of which I am told they are generally ignorant and I feel perfect confidence, that any facts which may yet be discovered, will confirm my words whenever they can be obtained.

Book Description
The original nunsploitation novel! In the 1830s, mentally deranged Canadian Maria Monk (1816-1849) was sent to a Roman Catholic asylum for prostitutes in Montreal. When it in 1834 was discovered that she was pregnant, she was thrown out of the asylum. Maria Monk joined up with the Reverend William K. Hoyt, a fanatical anti-Catholic, and together they cooked up "Awful Disclosures." Inspired by Rebecca Reed's "Six Months in a Convent," published one year prior, Hoyt turned Monk's feverish, imaginary tales into a semi-pornographic novel about sexual abuse, violence and devilry in the nunnery nearby the asylum. "Awful Disclosures," believed to be a true story, became a phenomenal bestseller during the American Civil War.
